Review

Allmusic review wrote "Phil Ramone's clean and simple production perfectly complements Paige's sweet but powerful vocal ability. Elaine Paige and Friends is unlikely to echo the multi-platinum success of similar duets collections, but for fans who've waited nearly 20 years for new material, it's a tasteful and well-produced choice of songs."[5]

gollark: How? Why couldn't they just use the regular internet and save everyone a lot of time?
gollark: `application/prayer` is not a valid MIME type and the format of the body doesn't look like anything I recognize.
gollark: It's not reachable and it doesn't obey the standards.
gollark: Wait, do I need to sacrifice RAMs or something to "God" to make it work?
